Peace Movement in the United States
This matter should be given maximum emphasis with the Soviets. They are to be informed that the peace movement in the United States is big and making the only effective fight against thé: war in Vietnam, The demonstrations held 10/15-16/65 as the International Days of Protest were the biggest since the hunger “marthes in the depression years.

The Soviets are to be told that the W. Ε, B. DuBois clubs of America are the largest single youth organization of the left in
this country. They publish their literature with the financial aid of the Party,

Legal Difficulties
The Soviets are to be informed that the crisis in the Party resulting from prosecutions under the Internal Security Act of 1950 is not over and, in addition, the Party faces a tax judgment of $350,000. The Party intends to make the tax case la political issue of persecution and imperialist harassment.
‘Information on Cuba and Indonesia
Informant is to attempt to find out the true facts surrounding the departure of Ernesto "Che" Guevara, former high official in. Cuba under Fidel Castro.. He should also find out why Carl Winter, the Party's Labor Secretary, was unable to see Castro while in Cuba recently. Informant is also to determine what hashappened and is happening in connection with the situation in Indonesia,
Uitraleft
The Sovis ts are to be told that the influence of the ultraleft in the United States is on the downgrade, but that it is receiving lavish financial aid from the Chinese Communists,
Request for Funds
Informant is to formulate the Party's request for $1,000,000 for the year 1966 from the Soviets andjustify it according to his own discretion utilizing the above items,
In making his justification for this money the source was instructed also to mention that the Party is employing a full~ time employee in the South and one on legislative activities in Washington, D. C. He should note that the Party is giving |ccntempis assistance to the Communist Party of Puerto Rico, contemplates re-establishing its daily newspaper and plans to open four new bookstoves in order to disseminate literature.
ACTION:
Since Soviet reactions to these matters are not known, itis deemed judicious to await the return of CG 5824=$* from his Solo Mission prior to making dissemination of this information, It is also believed that dissemination of this information, prior
» to the informant's turn, may seriously jeopardize hissecurity.

WRINSTOCK had turned over in the U.S. would then be considered © (as direct material ald from the ESWP to the CP, USA. After ὁ
arrival in Hurigary, LOUIS WEINSTOCK was in com:unication

STANKODPORT
During the writerts visit to Moscow in November 1963, he met with Mr. Ignatiev, of Stankoimport, and they discussed the various pieces of American made machinery in which Stankoimport was interested in purchasing,
Mr. Ignatiey indicated his interest in having us investigate for him the possibilities of purchasing these pieces, as Stankoimport had not been successful, up to that time,
a interesting the American firms that made this machinery in going business with OMe
Upon the writer's return to the United States, we immediately set about contacting
these particular companies, as well as many others that manufactured similar equipment. ἡ _ Much time, money and effort went into these investigations but we were suocessful . | dn evoking the interest of some of-these firms in considering the possibilities of — Ν . dealing with the Πι5..5.ἢο
In particular, we paid special attention to the strapping equipment needs of Stankoimport, and made contact with several U. S. manufacturers, among them was the SIGNQDE CO. Although at that time the Signode Company policy did not permit sales to socialist countries, we noted in a letter to Stankoimport thet we had been in touch with
Signode and that we were fairly confident that their policy on sales to the
socialist countries would no doubt change in a comparatively short time. Tie
sent them particulars about the specifio machinery they had asked us to look into,
and included descriptive literature,
About two months later, we sent a follow-up letter to Stankoimport informing them that. . Signede was noWeonsidering a change in policy toward East Europea and that the time ." ᾿ might be right for us to appreach them again on the strapping équipment. We never received a reply te this letter, .
‘ Tt has now come to our attention that at the end of last year, .or the beginning of . this year, the Soviet Union purchased strapping equipment from Signode, without - . informing us of their intentions. a |
. We would like to point out, if the saving of money was a factor in going directly to ““ς Signode, the Soviet Union did not, in facd, make any savings by bypassing us, as τὸς Signode would have paid us a commission, without affecting the purchase price.
We would also like to point out that our firm can offer many services not available . when purchases are made directly. As an example, we are in the position of being -
- able to check on production capabilities of the same types of equipment set up in various factories but manufactured by different companies. We also have the ἘΣ opportunity to compare down time, weaknesses of equipment and other factors that are important in production, such as ease of repair, etc. In addition to this, . we are available for other services, without any cost to the Soviet Union, such .
δ as keeping them informed of new equipment on the market, new methods of manufacturing, etc. All of these services come to them without any additional coste. ᾿ « ἢ . " - " }
val we ask is the opportunity te show what we can doe ”

in the ABRAM TOMKINS omission and the correction of their names,
"To this date RALPH NELSON still has not received his passport, and though he may be late in getting to the USSR, and perhaps may not be with our delegation at the time, we are determined that he wait and fight for this passport so. that he may go to the USSR. Please make sure that he is met in Moscow whenever he gets there (as yet we have no geparture or arrival date for him). Also may I call to your attention that in this delegation there are the. following CGPUSA National Committee members: They are RALPH NELSON ,. FRED BLAIR, MILDRED MC ADORY EDELMAN, and, of course, the. chairman of this delegation, THOMAS DENNIS. I know thet: you will utilize the capabilities of THOMAS DENNIS of whom we are so proud, 4s well as those of the other National Committee members . In all this, you will find them to be 8 good delegation. Please cooperate in helping THOMAS DENNIS to contact the Embassies of such CP countries. as Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and East Germany, “in which parts or all of this delegation can visit. for a few days each.

As a result of these circumstances, it will be essential that immediately upon the informant's arrival in the U.S. intensive debriefing. of the source be begun so as to insure that the Bureau and the Government ‘has first access to any important, pertinent information prior to any contact by CG 5824=-S* with the leadership of the ΟΡ, USA. Should the dehriefing be delayed until
after the informant has contacted, GUS. HALL, there undoubtedly would be an extensive delay in obtaining
this important information by reason of the demands of _ GUS HALL, Furthermore, debriefing by two agents is con- sidered necessary in order to insure absolute complete—

Recommendation
CG 5824-s* Sirice it is réceived totally on an oral basis.
In addition, debriefing by this means expedites: the handling and dissemination of this information in a manner most advantagéous tothe Governient.
Therefore, the agents nesponsible for the handling
Of CG 5824-~S* have been alérted and are prepared to take
the nécessary ac.tion essential for the initiation of immediate debriefing of the Source. It is our view that the most likely: point of entry to.be used by CG 5824-S* would be at Boston, Massachusetts. Jt is éxpected that after a brief stop at Zoston,..Massachusetts, the informant will then have to proceed
to New York City for conferences. with GUS. HALL. Tf thesé
agents can proceed to the informant's point of arrival in the
U.S., discreet and secure contact can be made thus enabling immediate debriefing and expeditious handling of the most
pertinent intelligence information in his, possession. This debriefing could then continue by ‘these agents in New York
GUS’ HAL.

In view of the foregoing, the Chiago Office recommends: that: SAs RICHARD W. HANSEN and WALTER A, BOYLE, contacting and alternate agent respectively, be authorized td proceed to the informant's point of entry into the U.S, as soon as specific information is received as. to his destination. If this. travel is authorized the estiniated cost of the Bureau in this regard is as follows if the informant arrives at Boston and proceeds to New York City: _ |

Observation
In view of the importance of the information informant Should bring back, it is believed prudent to have contacting Agents meet him, Debriefing by two Agents is considered necessary in order to insure absolute completeness and accuracy of all information received from CG 5824~S* since it must, of necessity, be received on a totally oral basis. These two Agents are completely familiar with the names, places and events in the international communist movement and have in the past greatly facilitated the debriefing of informant, They will not depart Chicago until advised of informant's date of arrival in Boston. Attached is an airtel to Chicago authorizing Special Agmts Hansen and Boyle to proceed to Boston when advised of informant's pending arrival in the United States in order to immediately commence debriefing.

On 11/12/65; CG 5824-S* advised SA's WALTER A. BOYLE and RICHARD Ἢ, HANSEN that during a discussion he held with MIKHAIL SUSLOV, a Secrétary of the Central Committee, Communist Party of. the Soviet Union (CPSU), at the Kremlin, Moscow, USSR, in early November, 1965, the latter provided CG 5824- ‘S* with a number of pages which he had just torn out ; of a publication he had in his possession. SUSLOV told the , source to read this material, but made no other comment.. It was found that these pages. torn from the publication were written in the Russian language and were part of a publica- tion of the Tass News Agency Bulletin which is published for the exclusive use of, the CPSU leadership and is not circulated except under appropriate security conditions. When CG 5824- S* reviewed this material he found it consisted of an article dealing with. Mr, HOOVER's annual report to Congress on the FBI.

With. vegard to negotiations which have been carried on with the United States Government, it was noted that the é United States did not propose oné concrete item which. would improve relations betweén these two countries.

LATIN AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP MEETING, APRIL, 1966 |
=
in mid-November, 1965, a source, who has furnished reliable information in the past, advised as follows:
A solidarity conference of Latin American Communist Parties had been scheduled’ to be held in Santiago, Chile, around October or November, 1965, when the Communist Party of Chile held its Thirteenth Congress. However, this solidarity conference was canceled in order not to place the Chilean Government on the "spot" and arouse action by that Government based on pressures being exerted by other Latin American coun- tries like Brazil and Argentina. As a substitute for the canceled Latin American solidarity conference, a Latin American Friendship Meeting is now being tentatively scheduled for April, 1966, Exactly where this friendship meeting will be held is still indefinite, but Santiago, Chile, or Montevideo, Uruguay, is being considered as the possible site. In addition to participants from Latin American countries being invited to be present, invitations will be extended to North American Communist Parties, the Communist Party, USA, and the Communist Party of Canada, to attend.

COMMENTS OF LEADERSHIP OF THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF THE.SOVIET UNION. REGARDING VIETNAM
During November, 1965, a source, who has furnished reliable information in the past, advised as follows:
During early November, 1965, a series of discussions were held in Moscow, USSR, between representatives of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) and the Communist Party, USA (CP, USA). Among those participating in these discussions for the.CPSU. were Mikhail Suslov and Boris N. Ponomarev, both Secretaries of the Central Committee of the CPSU. These discussions were predicated upon the contents of a document previously communicated to the CPSU containing the essence of recent pronouncements concerning Vietnam by Gus Hall, General Secretary of the CP, USA, to members of the leadership and cadre of the CP, USA.
This document had raised some serious questions. Hall contended that the Viet Cong (the military arm of the National Liberation Front of South. Vietnam (NLFSVN) cannot possibly achieve a victory by military means alone. against the combined forces of the Government of South Vietnam and the United States. Consequently, what is necessary is a com- bination of political and military means to force United States imperialism to retreat, Hall opposed the use of the slogans, "no negotiations" and "military victory." Hall declared that eventually both the NLFSVN and the forces of United States imperialism will be forced to negotiate and that these negotia- tions, rather than being ἃ surrender,would allow the political _ element to come into play. Hall envisioned the following as his concept of victory by means both military and political:
1) Cessation of United States bombing in Vietnam;
2) Negotiations including the NLFSVN;
SNOLOSURE

COMMENTS OF LEADERSHIP OF THE CPSU ropenEr REGARDING VIETNAM |
3) Withdrawal of foreign troops, and
4) Elections in Vietnam which he expects would be swept by. the NLF.
Hall also took note of the fact that the CP, USA was placed in a difficult position and could not publicly advocate negotiations. Such a public position by the CP, USA could well be misinterpreted, coming from the Party in the country whence the bombings, etc., originated. Some people might look upon the CP, USA as ''stooges” of United
.otates imperialism.
This document by Gus Hall had been made available to the CPSU sometime previous to this meeting and formed the basis for thesediscussions which were carried on primarily by the representatives of the CPSU, in particular by Mikhail
Suslov.. The discussion was begun by Suslov who stated in
essence as follows:
We understand the tactical difficulties experienced by the CP, USA in your efforts in the ‘struggle for peace, Since you are the Party in the aggressor country. We also believe that the solution to stopping aggression in Vietnam can be brought about only through use of both military and political methods, that is, negotiations. But the main question is when is the time to raise the demand for negotia- tions, to engage in discussions and to raise the subject of settlement before world bodies, etc. The Vietnamese comrades say that now is not the time, They, too, believe in political as well as military methods, according to what they tell us. We have met with the Vietnamese comrades and we have raised the question of both military methods and negotiations. In our view, the only realistic solution is the use of these _ combined methods. -
The CP, USA representatives advised Susiov that the CP, USA did not propose that either the CPSU or the CP, USA raise the slogan of "negotiations." However, other Parties could try it, such as the Italians.or the French,
Suslov responded: We do not consider it advisable for the Soviet Union to come out in the press or in public

statements in favor of political negotiations. Such a step will hurt the Vietnamese. They are carrying the burden of the struggle against imperialist aggression although we give them everything they ask for and can use, However, the fact that our two countries have no common border makes the ren- dering of this material aid difficult,
The Chinese do not like the fact that we are helping the Vietnamese and, therefore, place obstacles in our path. They do not permit our planes to fly material to Vietnam over their country. The Chinese do not allow us to use Chinese air fields and there are no adequate air fields in Vietnam. The Chinese say that we want to "control them" and to “occupy some Chinese and Vietnamese territory," etc. These charges are absolutely untrue.
The, solution to combining both military and political methods is to provide more assistance to our Vietnamese com- rades from all of us, at the same time increasing public opinion against the Johnson Administration. The Vietnamese comrades are correct when they state that United States troops are waging a cruel war against the people of both North and South Vietnam,
If the CP, USA cannot openly advocate "negotiations," you can certainly support other organizations or,movements that do use the word 'negotiations." The least you can say is "stop the bombing" instead of saying.outright "start negotiations." We know it is difficult for your Party to say "negotiate" while the United States -is still bombing the Vietnamese people. The United States Government makes it almost impossible by their constant bombing. We realize that the.CP, USA might ‘be mis- understood if you talk about negotiations. Certainly the Chinese would misinterpret it--if they misinterpret the state- ments of the March 1, 1965, conference in Moscow, they would certainly misinterpret such statements. by you. on negotiations, But there are other slogans you can raise. For example, the world knows that there are no Vietnamese ships in United States waters and there are no Vietnamese planes bombing United States cities, So, you can raise slogans like "stop the bombing," "withdraw United States ships from Vietnamese waters," etc.
To advocate negotiations now would only aggravate matters. We are expecting that in the near future there will be another vicious attack upon us by the Chinese and such statements by

either of our Parties will merely add fuel to the fire and the Chinese will seize upon these statements for their own purposes,
We agree with your Party that the statements by Chen Yi and Lin Piao that they will deal the United States a crushing military defeat are stupid and provocations, Such policies hurt the anti-imperialist movement, .
We will continue to expose United States imperialism. We will continue to support our Vietnamese comrades both politically and with material aid. We will wait until the Vietnamese comrades say that the time is "ripe." We believe that a public discussion on this question among.the CPs of the world or among Parties of particular regions is not now advisable.
Once again the CP, USA representatives raised the question as to why the subject of negotiations cannot be opened by other Parties. They noted that it was their ‘understanding that the Hungarians and the Czechs were sympathetic to the idea of negotiations. However, it would be more advisable for the subject to be opened by the Italian or the French Party or the like. Suslov replied, whatever is initiated by other Parties which are known to be Moscow- oriented, the Chinese will say that it was originated by the CPSU. As of now, it is kind of difficult for others to raise this subject. At this time, the CPSU is going to wait because She might be misinterpreted. We will not use our initiative in this matter until the Vietnamese ask for help. However, it is possible that if the CPSU is subjected to more pressure from other Parties in the world, we may be able to use our influence to get the North Vietnamese to cease engaging in tre struggle although we may not have any effect upon the
LFSVN,
The Vietnamese comrades do not agree with everything the Chinese propose. We have discussed this with the Vietnamese comrades and we think that you should do so.aleo. We raised with the Vietnamese the need for coordination of all the efforts of the CP of China (CPC), the Vietnamese, and the CPSU. The Chinese categorically rejected this proposition.
Ponomarevy then noted, since you come from the United States, you should get to know the Vietnamese and they should
-4- ταιγάζουεν
O
COMMENTS OF LEADERSHIP OF THE CPSU ET REGARDING VIETNAM
be informed of the situation in your country. We understand the essence of your position as outlined in the statement
of your General Secretary and as we discussed it here today. This requires raising demands for a return to the Geneva Agreements, stop the bombing of Vietnam, etc. You should meet the Vietnamese representatives from both North and South Vietnam who are here in Moscow,
At this point, the CP, USA representatives indi- cated that they saw little reason to meet with the Vietnamese Since the CP, USA had talked with them before and while they say one thing in private, they say something else in public. Suslov indicated that perhaps the CP, USA might teach the Vietnamese something about the United States, The CP, USA representatives then asked why the Vietnamese say that the time is not "ripe" for combined military and political methods. Do they.see a military victory soon, or what do- they see?
Ponomarey stated, we only agree with the Vietnamese that it is not time because the Vietnamese say that the time is not "ripe." We do not know the details behind their decision. Suslov interjected, I think it is clear that the Vietnamese decision not to enter into negotiations at this time is not a matter of principle. They are being subjected to ἃ Τοῦ of pressure by the Chinese, The Chinese are the ones who may decide when the time is "ripe" or maybe that the time will never be"ripe,” .
suslov continued, the slogan "stop the bombing” would, in itself, lay the basis for later negotiations, Other Parties have held talks on the raising of such slogans and demands. For example, Ghana has offered its good offices but the Vietnamese do not want this now and we must defer to their wishes, The slogan "stop the bombing" is a minimum demand to be raised. We have talked to the Vietnamese quite frankly, but the Vietnamese limit what they tell us and do not tell us everything. We wish they would tell us everything so we would know what is going on. For example, the Vietnamese held talks with the Chinese, and they do not even tell us what they talked about with the Chinese or what the Chinese had to Say about the situation in Vietnam. In regard to the 17th parallel dividing North and South Vietnam, the Chinese say that this boundary does not exist and that it is all one country. We say that this attitude does not help anything to just say that it does not exist. We do not agree with the

Chinese but there is nothing we can do,
We have been doing our best to supply the Vietnamese with all the material they need, but we have been hindered and obstructed by the Chinese because of the fact that we have no common border with Vietnam and these supplies must pass through China. For example, we have tried to obtain agreement from the Chinese to fly these supplies over China. This the Chinese refused to allow, As you recall, the March 1, 1965, conference issued a statement on Vietnam calling for united actions by all socialist countries in support of the Vietnamese struggle.
(The statement on Vietnam issued by the conference of nineteen Communist and Workers Parties during early March, 1965, in Moscow, and which was published in the March 16,
1965, issue of "The Worker," an East Coast communist newspaper, after condemning the actions of the United States in Vietnam, concluded with the following paragraphs:
"The representatives of the Communist and Workers Parties express international solidarity With the fraternal people of the Democratic Re- public of Vietnam, with the heroic Workers People's Party of Vietnam, and with the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam, who are waging a courageous struggle against imperialist ag- gression,
"The representatives of the Communist Workers Parties express international solidarity with the fraternal people of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, with the heroic Working People's Party of Vietnam, and with the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam, who are waging a courageous struggle against imperialist aggression,
"Marxist-Leninist parties consider it their international duty to secure joint action by all progressive and democratic forces in order to give determined support for the heroic struggle of the Vietnamese people for their freedom and independence.
"We demand the immediate withdrawal from south Vietnam of the U.S. armed forces and their satellites andthe cessation of armed attacks against the democratic Republic of Vietnam.

COMMENTS OF LEADERSHIP OF THE CPSU TPORSECHET REGARDING VIETNAM
"The representatives of the Communist and Workers Parties, who met in Moscow, appeal to all the forces of the national liberation and working class movements, to everyone who upholds the cause of peace and progress, to strengthen unity of action and solidarity in the active struggle against imperialist aggression, for national independence and the peace and security of the peoples. '')
Suslov continued, we, on our part, have attempted to put this unity of action into effect and made concrete proposals to the Chinese for carrying.out actions in support of the Vietnamese. As you know, we were absolutely rebuffed by the Chinese. Our two letters to the Chinese on this subject in April of this year were answered, one in April and the other on July 14, 1965. In this latter communication, the Chinese accused us of conniving with the United States imperialists against the people of Vietnam.
(The letter of July 14, 1965, from the CPC and the Government of the Peoples Republic of China to the CPSU and the Government of the USSR totally rejected the Soviet request in their letter of April 3, 1965, for a summit meeting of the Soviet Union, China, and Vietnam to coordinate aid to Vietnam, The USSR was condemned for carrying on behind the backs of Vietnam and China international maneuvers for peace negotiations and for advocating a new international conference on Indo-China without prior conditions. When the USSR advocated the cessa-~ tion of bombing by the United States as leading to the possi-~ bility of negotiations, the Chinese stated that this was directly supporting the United States imperialists whose aim in bombing North Vietnam was to bring about such negotiations. The Chinese letter stated "You are still pursuing the line of soviet-United States collaboration for the domination of the world." The Chinese charged that the Soviet offer to send troops.to Vietnam, to station military aircraft in China, near the Vietnamese border, to defend the Vietnamese territorial air, and the Soviet request for free travel in an air corridor across China to Vietnam were subterfuges by which the USSR hoped to occupy and control China and Vietnam. The Chinese , also charged that the USSR was only sending small amounts of aid to Vietnam and that these consisted of old, out-of-date, impractical and inferior materials. ‘Frankly speaking, we

cannot trust you," the Chinese stated and closed their letter with the demand that the USSR and the CPSU abandon their present course. }
puslov stated, the Vietnamese have recalled that although all the other socialist Parties signed the March 1 conference statement, the Chinese did not sign. As a result, the Chinese feel no obligation to allow us to fly over China with supplies for Vietnam and thus none are flown to Vietnam. As a result, all these supplies must go by train through China. Then, the Chinese stop these trains and inspect the cargo and decide what will go into Vietnam and what will not. When they see sophisticated weapons, the Chinese say that the Vietnamese are incapable of using them and cannot use.them and, therefore, do not let these weapons . $9 into Vietnam. This then is how the Chinese accuse us of only sending old weapons into Vietnam. The .Chinese say to us, "What do you Russian and Western Communist Parties want? You act like the man who bought an admission ticket to a play and then acts if it is a season's pass. When you sign one agreement, you act as if you can take over everything."
We have expressed our opinion to the Vietnamese on the question of negotiations. Life moves ahead and life is a good teacher which will even teach the Vietnamese. ; We have. ηοϊϑθὰ a number of indirect indications that there " are some changes in the attitude of the Vietnamese. The bombing has had a severe effect. on the economy of the North Vietnamese. When the bombing smashes their roads and bridges and power plants, they are rebuilt; but then they are smashed again. -The question is how long can they go on this way. The Vietnamese are learning fast the .other side of the picture. Our Vietnamese comrades see ‘who helps them and who. only boasts about help and gives nothing. They see it very clearly. They have received real. help. from.us.but_where is the Chinese help? China-not only does not heip but also hinders the USSR's -help . το Vietham. The Vietnamese have begun to see that they cannot rely-on-China, China will fight only if invaded and has publicly declared so a number of times.
Another factor which is most important is the fact that the National Liberation Front, the Viet Cong, did not achieve the victories that were predicted. Before the monsoon season began both the Vietnamese and the Chinese were boasting that when the monsoons came the Viet Cong would score smashing victories. We have seen that the monsoon season came and -

went and these military victories did not materialize. So, the South Vietnamese comrades, too, are beginning to see the need for both military methods and political methods, that is, negotiations.
The question which the CP, USA raises, that is, when will be the time the military methods and negotiations will combine, is not a hopeless question. Negotiations will come but we don't know when. Have you tried to taik to the Vietnamese delegation here? They are here and you should
see them if you can and maybe you can convince them to be more specific.
In the meantime, all of us must help in the fight against United States imperialism. We also have urgent defense requirements in order to keep the West German revanchists in their place despite United States imperialism. Yourfight for peace is most important and I am sure that all Parties agree that yours is a most difficult struggle.

AGAINST INCREASED U.S. AGGRESSION | It VIETNAM
LETTER FROM THE NLSSV TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE*
Dear Friends,
The ruling circles of the USA, acting against the will of your people and the undertakings which Walter Bedell Smith solemnly gave on behalf of the U.S. government at the last sitting of the Geneva Conference on July 21, 1954, have begun in South Vietnam the most cruel war of aggression of today.
It is elevon years since the U.S, imperialists put the yoke of - American neo-colonialism on the South Viatnamese people, who had thrown off the yoke of colonial rule. The defeated French expeditionary corps was succeeded by a U.S. expeditionary corps, leading to the restoration of the old colonial rule in South Vietnam,
The U.S. government has built numerous military bases on our soil. It has mustered a puppet army 600,000 strong and, in defiance of all the articles of the Geneva agreements of 1954, is -openly waging a colonial war, which has already resulted in the killing of hundreds of thousands of our countrymen in the two parts of the country.
Nevertheless, the murderers in the White House and the Penta- gon insist that they are “helping” the South Vietnamese authorities to “combat aggression and uphold freedom.” How can anyone claim that the Victnamese, who have risen to defend the indepen- dence and sovereignty of their country, are aggressors while the US. troops sent to South Vietnam, tens of thousands of miles ‘away fromthe USA, to seize our territory, are “defending” the Sovereignty and independénce of the American people? .
It is perfectly clear that the-U.S. government ignores the will of the American people and tae national sentiments of the: Vietna-
“mese people. Ever since last April, the Johnson government had - demanded unconditional negotiations, and meanwhile the strength © of the U.S. troops in South Vietnam has. increased from 25,000 to 75,000. The U.S. government is planning a general mobilization of ~American youth to raise the strength of the U.S. expeditionary corps in South Vietnam to 150,000 or even 200,000. Jt has sent to South Vietnam more modern arms and other war supplies, includ-

.ing missiles and Strategic BG2 bombers, and has used poison gas as ἃ weapon, ‘
It follows that President Johnson’s talk about “peace” is mere camouflage for the stepping up of the war of aggression. It is a treacherous attempt to make the Vietnamese people Jay down their arms and surrender, renouncing the defense of their national independence and sovereignty. Furthermore, the Johnson govern- ment, which is faced with serious difficulties that may Jead to the complete defeat of the United States in its war of aggression in Vietnam, speculates on the American people's patriotism by dema- gogically declaring that.the stay of U.S. troops in South Vietnam is a matter of “honor” for the American people,
Surely the honor of the American nation has nothing to do with the forcible seizure of the territory of another country or with the defense of the selfish interests of the worst warmongers. in the USA, What is a matter of honor for the American people is to gain. freedom for themselves and to respect the freedom of other nations. By waging a war of aggression in South Vietnam, the Johnson government has tamished the honor of the American people, who have glorious chapters to their credit in the history of the great struggle for independence against tHe British colo- nialists’ rule from 1775 to 1783, The US. imperialists’ war of aggression has tarnished the honor of the country of Abraham Lincoln, John Brown and other Americans who fell fighting for the ideal of liberty.
‘Dear friends, .
4, popular movement has been growing in your country for three years, It has now become particularly vigorous and it rejoices our peaple and, undoubtedly, everyone clse on the globe who cherishes freedom, justice and genuine peace, This movement reflects the tme sentiment of the most diverse sections of your people, who uphold their vital interests, opposing the adventurous policy of aggression pursued by the U.S. government in Vietnam.
, We will never forget the honest voice of the sixty-four American intellectuals who gave public warning to the Kennedy government as early as March 1962, That voice has been growing stronger fiom day ta day, and has won the hearty approval,of Vietnamese intellec- tuals in both South and North Vietnam, ΝΞ
We will always remember the resolute voices raised in protest by American religious organizations, the International Women's League for Peace and Freedom, youth organizations fighting against war and fascism, the Committee of the Students’ May 2 Movement, etc.
We are heatened by the increasingly frequent and stormy meet- ings and demonstrations by various groups of Americans, such as the demonstrations on April 17 and May 21, in which tens of thous-
- 38 duformation bulletin ,
ands of people joined to protest against the American rulérs’ war‘of aggression in South Vietnam and the sabotage’ raids on North Vietnam by U.S. aircraft, We will always remember the selfless act of Helga Alice Hertz, who gavo her life in protest against the violation of civil liberties and the suppression of other peoples. These numerous actions show that the masters of the White
House and the Pentagon, who are waging a war of aggression in .
our country, do not represent the American people. They’ are no more than a handful of traitors who have trampled the Declaration of Independence underfoot,
On behalf of the fourteen million inhabitants of South Vietnam, the Presidium of the CC, NLFSV expresses its gratitude to the American people, and solemnly pledges itself to go along with true American friends in this common struggle for peace, national inde- pendence and social progress,
In thanking the American people, we hope you will join us-in the fight for ‘the strict observance by the U.S. government of the undertakings it gave at the Geneva Conference in 1954, for the immediate discontinuance of the war of ageression in South Vietiam and of the raids on North Vietnam, and ἢ for the withdrawal of all
American troogs and war supplies from South Vietnam, so that the-
South Vietnamese people themseives can settle their affairs.
In thanking the American people, we hope you will take firm steps to prevent murderers from sending your sons and brothers to their deaths in the assassins’ dirty interests, and will insist on bring- ing young Americans back to their country. We call on you to step up the struggle in every form, to explain to your countrymen the
_ patriotic, just character of the Hberation war which the people of
South Vietnam are waging for national indépendence, peace and neutrality, We trust the American people, being deeply aware of their res- ponsibility for peace and friendship among the peoples, will realize the adventurous character of the war which the Johnson adminis- tration is waging and which may have disastrous consequences for them. We trust they will step up their fight for the immediate dis- continuance of this brutal war of aggression, “We hail all American friends, particularly American fathers,
‘ mothers and young people, who are fighting successfully for the
happy future of their people,
STATEMENT BY THE DRV GOVERNMENT*
On July 28, 1965, President Johnson announced that the U.S. gov- ernment had decided immediately to send another 50,000 U.S. troops, or more if necessary, to South Vietnam. At the same time

Ι his government asked Congress to take other steps extending the ' aggression in Vietnam. . . Tt was another exceedingly dangerous step by the U.S, imperial- i ists to step up the war of aggression in South Vietnam and the air war against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. It aggravates the situation in Indochina and the rest of Southeast Asia, ᾿ Lately the U.S. imperialis.s have vezor.ed to escalation, hoping to stave off defeat, get out of 2 difficult situation and prevent disin- tegration of South Vietnam’s puppet government and army. In the four months since-Johnson's Baltimore. speech the U.S. government chas raised the strength of its troops in South Vietnam from 30,006 to 130,000. As for the DRV, it is carrying out air raids on a grow- ing scale over increasingly large areas, including vast, densely- -popuiated ones. ᾿ But the liberation forces and the people of South ‘Vietnam are dealing the aggressors one heavy plow after another even where the aggressors think they are safe, In North Vietnam, the “escalat- ing” Americans are being countered with growing force, More than 400 US. aircraft have been downed to date, World opinion, includ- ing American opinion, is protesting more and more vigorously against the U.S. aggression. The peoples of all countries are step- ping up their support of the Vietnamese people. To mislead the American people and world opinion and justify ‘ the dispatch of U.S. troops to Vietnam for intensified aggression, - President Johnson uses high-sounding words like “peace,” “free- dom” and “justice.’? He speaks of “unconditional negotiations” again and again, saying that he is willing to go over from the battle- field to the conference table. But his hypocritical talk cannot con- ceal or misrepresent the facts. -- In reality, the U.S: government has torpedoed the Geneva agree- -ynents of 1954 on Vietnam. It flouts international Jaw, continually interferes in the internal affairs of the Viemamese people, sends . U.S. troops against the South Vietnamese people, bombs and shells ‘DRV territory, and has gone as far as to state flatly that it will not Jeave Vietnam.

fringing peace and flouting the independence, sovereignty, unily “and territorial integrity of their country.
_ The government of the DRV emphatically protests against the dispatch of large troop reinforcements to South Vietnam by the U.S. government with the aim of intensifying its aggression and escalating the war in Vietnam, which is a most serious encroacit- ment on the national rights of the Vietnamese people and creates “a highly dangerous situation in Indochine and the rest of South- “east Asia. The DRV government again exposes the U.S. authorities’ deceitful talk of “negotiations without any strings attached,” which οἷς, in effect, meant to disguise the U.S. imperialists’ insidious plan _to force the Vietnamese people into surrendering to the U.S. policy of aggression.
‘The government of the DRV solemnly declares that there is one Vietnam and one Vietnamese people and since the U.S. imperialists _are engaged in aggression against Vietnam, it is the duty of every ‘Vietnamese to fight against the U.S. imperialists, for national sal- vation. This is a sacred and inalienable right of the Vietnamese pco- _ple. All the Vietnamese people are fighting staunchly and as one "man in the forefront of the scruggle of the peoples of the world ,against imperialism, colonialisra and néocolonialism, for peace, na- _tional independence, democracy and social progress. Should the U.S. imperialists send as many a8 100,000 or 200,000, or even more American troops to Vietnam, and should the fight go on for ten, twenty or more years, the Vietnamese people are resolved to fight to final victory. They are ready to fight and to make sacrifices for their freedom and independence, for the freedom and independence of all the peoples, for world peace.
As President Johnson speaks of an “honorable peace,” we must
~ recall that during the past eleven years the government of the DRV
has repeatedly put forward recsonable proposals for ἃ peaceful set- dlement in Vietnam on the basis of the Geneva agreements of 1954. _On‘April 8, last, it clarified its position further by advancing ἃ pro- ‘ posal of four points as a basis for the most reasonable political set- tlement of the’Vietnamese ptoblem, Its position and the statement . made by the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam (NLFSV) ‘on March 22, 1965, brought warm approval and support from many governments and peoples of the world.
‘There is only one way to an “honorable peace” for.the U.S. gov- ernment. It lies through strict adherence to the Geneva agreements of 1954 and through acceptance of the four-point proposal of the DRV government. The U,S. government must immediately stop its air war against the DRV and all encrodchménts on the sovereignty
“and security_of the DRV. It must immediately end its war of ag- gression in South Vietnam and-withdraw all American troops and arms from there, so that the South Vietnamese people can them:

CZECHOSLOVAKIA, OCTOBER 23, 1965
A source, who has furnished reliable information in the past, in mid-November, 1965, advised as follows:
During the period of October 21-23, 1965, the "World Marxist Review", official theoretical organ of the International Communist Movement, in cooperation with the Communist Party (CP) of Czechoslovakia, held a conference devoted to the 30th anniver-— Sary of the 7th Congress of the Communist International in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Representatives from 39 Communist or Workers' Parties participated in this conference, Claude Lightfoot, Vice- Chairman, CP, USA, represented his party at this affair.
On October 23, 1965, Claude Lightfoot delivered the following speech before this conference in Prague:
“Dear Comrades:
"I vise before you to bring greetings on behalf of the Communist Party of the United States. I want to bring to you the special greetings of the leading spokesman of our Party Comrade Gus Hall.

"We join with all others in thanking the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia and the magazine, the'World Marxist Review,‘ for convening this meeting to observe the Thirtieth Anniversary of the Seventh World Congress of the Communist International, We meet at a time when profound lessons.from,the experience of, the period of the Seventh World Congress can help luminate the path we must follow today in the. struggle for peace, democracy and socialism,
"We live in a time when it. is necessary for the whole world Communist movement to make estimates of the major ‘trends of today's world. The meetings which we are holding.
‘here’ will be most helpful. We of the American delegation take this occasion to reaffirm our position and-call fox. a world conference of Communist parties, which will help elaborate these problems in greater depth.
"Now I take it that the main purpose of this. conference is not merely to recite what was happening in the world at the time of the Seventh World:Conference or to merely list the problems that movement was confronted with at that time. It seems to me that our major preoccupation should “pe to extract’ the rich Lessons contained in the experience ‘of that period and to apply them to the problems we. confront today.
"In this regard one could discuss many aspects of the work of the Seventh World Congress, however, I shall con- fine my remarks to a few propositions. One of the main lessons of the Congress was the confidence in the masses
στ τ τ ag va fundamental prerequisite to mobilize them in the struggles of our times. If there is any one image that has'; come down the corridors of time and hangsvividly in my mind, as one of the participants in the Seventh World Congress, it was the ability of the world Communist move- ment to learn from the masses, and to place great confidence
in them. -~2- CONFIDENTIAL

"That Congress above all reflected the experiences. of the working classes of many countries., It combined this experience, and gave it back to the masses as a generalized. guide with ‘which to wage the struggle, to bar the path to. fascism-and war, eventually to defeat the fascist aggressors.
-"The struggles of our time go forward in a different framework than the period of the Seventh World Congress
and therefore require many different points of reference.
But in an overall sense the validity of many propositions: advanced at that time still stands today.
"During the period of the Seventh World Congress we. . called. for the building of broad popular. fronts. Today we call for broad antimonopoly -alliances.-or- coalitions. in. new. conditions in the USA. The. alliances of today are still in the context to promote peace, democracy and progress but they differ in two- respects. Today. the dangers: dre: graver'’ than ever before in the history of mankind. For we face ~ the possibility of ‘a thermonuclear war. On the other hand, the opportunities. and goals are brighter than any other ’ timé in human history.

Before us. lies the pos= sibility of achieving of what great minds have dreamed: of throughout the ages and the geniuses,Marx, Engles and Lenin gave to us: as: the science of the working class.

Vol »* everything, Policies that are being advanced in this direction betray a lack of confidence in the working class as a pivotal force in the struggle to preserve peace, Such an outlook also reveals a lack of confidence of the contradictions inherent in the capitalist system, In a certain sense this line of reasoning is reminiscent of some of the narrow sectarian tactics which prevailed in the world Communist movement prior to the Seventh World Congress, And as we now know, in retrospect, such tactics contributed to the victory of Hitler in Germany and with its resultant consequences for the whole world, . _
οὖς Therefore, one of the central problems: before the world Communist movement and in the light of the Seventh World Congress experience is to, have a correct. appraisal of current trends and problems. lLetme therefore in summary form present to you a picture. of how: things. are unfolding in the United States.
_ “First of all let me on behalf of American Communists reject any and all concepts which. rules out the working class and the masses of American people as factors. in the struggle against imperialism and war. During’ the period
of the Seventh World Congress which witnessed the rise
to power of fascism in a whole number of countries, which witnessed the outbreak of World War II the American working class, the American people found the capacity to influence the direction of their government into an alliance with other forcés throughout the world which brought about the
‘defeat of the fascist powers. We American Communists
believe that though the circumstances of struggle are much different. and more difficult,. that once again the American people can find the capacity to stay the hands of the imperialist elements in our country. An examina- tion of the crises of the last fifteen years which placed the problem of nuclear war to the forefront found the American people as a potent factor in. preventing our warmongers from going over the brink, During the Korean

“War the American people helped to press a conclusion
to that war upon the Eisenhower Administration with a
Dulles as Secretary of State. Several times during his administration the people gave a sound rebuff to the brinkmanship policies of the late John Foster Dulles,
The eléction of Kennedy in 1960 was a rebuff to the extremist elements of the imperialists who through the candidacy
of Richard Nixon Sought to enlarge the war effort. ) Again, in the missile confrontation in Cuba, the American people were a factor and helped to determine some of the Saner policies of the Kennedy Administration, In 1964
the American people when confronted by the candidacy of Barry Goldwater an ‘avowed exponent of an American brand of
fascism and a reckless purveyor of nuclear war, once
again found a capacity to give a sound rebuff to these Suicidal tendencies,
"Comrades, when we speak of the American people being a decisive factor, the working class first of all, the record shows that they have already contributed to the common effort, And if this was the case in the past then the present situation is pregnant with much greater possibilities,
"Notwithstanding the Johnson Administration continues escalation of the. war in South Viet Nam. Notwithstanding his election betrayals, the historian of tomorrow will no doubt record the outcome of the 1964 elections as one of the crucial turning points in American history.. For what was new and overwhelming in importance was not the election of Johnson,. but the emergence of a coalition of broad popular forces which holds the- key to future victories over the forces of war, imperialism and reaction. .

"We have seen all the diverse elements which make up this unwritten coalition come to a closer under- Standing of the primacy of the peace issue. Heretofore, the American people became aroused only when confronted with the direct threat of a nuclear war. Today there is a greater consciousness to end all wars, small, local or general, Heretofore, while peace forces pressed the government on foreign policy they didgs believing that its intentions were honorable. Today great changes in the national mood are evident. The whole direction of foreign policy is under attack and question, the morality of the government's foreign policy is being undermined, as the people see immoral acts from day to day in South Viet Nam and the Dominican Republic.
Within this great wave of peace sentiment the United States, there is also emerging an ever~growing anti-imperialist sentiment and consciousness.
"Comrades, the peace movement in the United States is expanding and on the march. Several days ago over a hundred thousand students and peace forces demonstrated in many cities throughout the country. This was the largest and most militant form of action ever conducted at a time when our own country:was engaged in war. This action has evoked widespread concern from the Johnson Administration,
"The pressure upon the Peace Movement is great, but as of now the prospects for even broader actions are in the offing. But while we are heartened by the growth of the peace movements, there are many problems. The struggle must be waged against dogmatism and sectarianism not only in the United States, but also in the rest of the world. The Johnson Administration was in recent months able to re- coup some of—-its lost prestige through demogogic usage - of the cry opening the doors to 'negotiate' in the war in south Viet Nam. It is our judgement in the Communist Party of the United States that some of our forces and many Left non-party forces have not been skillful in coping with this demagogy. The Peace Movement today comprises:

The latter two groups make up the majority of those who desire peace and an énd to’ the threat of a thermonuclear war.
"But irrespective of these variations in assessments, the central point is that most people are willing to | struggle, And the more advanced forces must at all times endeavor to find tactical or common denominators to enlist united efforts of all forces,
"We urge the world Communist movement to also adopt tactics and methods which now facilitate the broadening of the American Peace Movement.
"For unless changes are made internally in the United States, then the peace of the world will perpetually. hang in the balance. To those who think that purely military means rout American imperialism are wishing in the dark. American imperialism can be defeated, But this cannot be done decisively without the active opposition of broad segments of the American people, Thus the strugzle to unite powerful sections of the American people with the other two components of the peace forces is the central "ἢ

"One of the reasons why there is a disposition in Some quarters including some Communists to write off the American people and its working class is a lack of con- fidence in the general laws and contradictions of capitalism. The United States emerged from World War Two as the richest and most powerful capitalist force in the world, The reasons, for this phenomena we will not discuss at this time, However, this fact has created untold problems. During the twenty years since war's end the American economy haS constantly expanded. Cycical crises which have errupted on the average of every ten or fifteen years during. this period failed to materialize in exactly the Same way. We have had several recessions, with a constant reserve army of unemployed of five to .six per cent of the. labor force, but nothing resembling the old type of de- pression. ᾿
"Because of this fact some fraternal parties conclude that the working class in the United States have all been bribed by imperialism, Hence they ‘cannot be relied upon* for the common struggle, Whoever reasons in this way misses two important points, one, the. standard of living being enjoyed by some American workers did not come as ‘mana from heaven.’ It came in response to great class struggles or struggle potentials and organization. Thus the working class has not been bribed. Its potential for struggle has been and still is great. It is true that the relative posi- tion of American capitalism to the rest of the world economically, has made the workers an easy prey to capitalist propaganda and even its ideology about the superiority of capitalism over socialism; secondly, they fail to see that capitalism in the United States has not solved its inner contradictions and that things do not. remain-static. The relative high living standard of the American worker in time may become the Achilles heel of capitalism and its propaganda. Moreover, the struggles of the workers to re~- tain their standard. of living in the framework of a situation where ‘the capacity of the capitalist class to give concessions

"is becoming the setting for some of the most gigantic Struggles of our time. Already symptoms are seen in the numerous strike struggles taking place in many industries,
"American capitalism is showing signs of cancerous tumors. In the midst of peak production, we havean ever Widening polarization between the haves and the have nots, Today in the United States it is fashionable to tak of the poor, It is estimated that between 30 to 80 million Americans live below the borderline of what is considered sufficient to live on in the category of poverty.
"This number includes workers who are employed as well as unemployed. With automation Spreading throughout industry the enlargement of the sector of the poor will
increase. Hence this unstable economic picture with its
resultant insecurity will continue to create conditions which will compel the workers to take the path of struggle. Such struggles could overnight change the image of ‘corrupt and bribed' American workers,
"A good point in this connection was some of the . recent developments in Los Angeles, the Negro community of Watts. This social outburst was largely a response to’ intolerable economic conditions. Watts is no isolated community. There are many such communities, Negro and white, throughout the United States, In everyone of them there is a time bomb ticking away. And if there is no solution, Sooner or later they will go off and change the very image of things, Now the problems that are posed by communities Such as Watts can be met basically only by a reduction in the war budget. While the administration voted one and
- one half billion dollars for its so-called ‘war on poverty '
they voted tens of billions of dollars for armaments and wars of aggression like in Viet Nam. The United States imperialist masters also Spend billions of dollars to keep its puppets armed and in power in other countries,

"Economic experts have estimated that it would cost from 15 to 20 billion dollars a year to make a beginning in the many areas like Watts, Harlem and the South’ Side of Chicago to raise the living level of the people from the present sub-standard,
"However, this cannot be accomplished urness there is a drastic cut in war appropriation. Hence struggles Such as Watts will have a direct bearing on the struggle for peace, ,
"Comrades, we in the United States are on the threshold of some vigantic struggles. Yesterday it was the civil rights struggles which engaged the world's attention,
Today, increasingly, it is the fight for peace, Tomorrow both of these problems will be joined by powerful economic battles, Together, all of them, will strike powerful blows for peace, democracy and progress,
"From the foregoing it should be clear that the relation~ Ship of forces throughout the world and the United States is favorable to prevent a nuclear war, to halt aggression against other countries, to allow the peoples of the world to Shape their own destinies for peace independence and a socialist world. And let us remember that unity of the world Communist movement is a prime prerequisite to achieve these goals.
"Thirty years ago the Seventh Congress of the Communist International raised the call for the unity of the working |
class and the people against war and fascism. This mighty banner for unity must now be raised higher - higher.
